Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed- focal to verification-done-focal. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification- failed-focal. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping! N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days. ** Changed in: cheese (Ubuntu Focal) Status: New => Fix Committed ** Tags added: verification-needed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1879183 Title: Cheese does not show preferences/options/menus to non-GNOME Users To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cheese/+bug/1879183/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1879183] Re: Cheese does not show preferences/options/menus to non-GNOME Users
Daniel, the reason I asked you to make a separate PPA is that, your PPA says "Random experiments. Use at own risk.", which might discourage people to try out the patched version of Cheese. It should instead say something like "This PPA provides a version of Cheese with this patch(link), which enables user to use preferences in non-GNOME DEs, and it is a workaround for all these bugs(links). For more details see https://askubuntu.com/q/1133058/124466 ", so that affected users would want to try it out, without fearing to severely break the system. This bug is absent in Ubuntu 18.04 (it looks like the person who asked this question in Ask Ubuntu manually installed 3.32 in Bionic and got this error. I can access preferences in Cheese 3.28 in Bionic). However, this bug is also present in Debian Buster (Cheese 3.31) (see https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/cheese/-/issues/52 ). I made this PPA (https://launchpad.net/~apandada1/+archive/ubuntu/cheese-headerbar- buster) for Debian Buster by applying the same patch, and someone confirmed that it works (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/cheese/-/issues/52#note_913663). I checked that PPA package also works in Bionic with KDE. I can't say whether/when GNOME devs will accept this patch upstream, as this bug report ( https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/cheese/-/issues/52 ) was closed because the devs could not reproduce it in GNOME (the fact is, it does not affect GNOME, but affects every other DE. The patch has been proposed in GitLab a month ago, but so far no developer of Cheese made a comment on it in GitLab. I fear they might ignore the patch because the bug does not affect GNOME.). If someone knows how to do so, please backport this patch to Ubuntu 20.04, without waiting for upstream to include it (multiple people have already confirmed that the bug exists, and the patch fixes it). If possible, also submit the patch to Debian. (I don't know how to submit patches to official packages in Ubuntu/Debian, otherwise I would be happy to take the initiative).

Archisman, the commit that caused this issue was first included in cheese 3.32.x version. Ubuntu Bionic/18.04 has cheese 3.28.x and should not be affected.
